Answering just this one question can lead to a wealth of
other information. Trees are everywhere around us and they are an integral
part of our lives. They are not just decorative objects, they do have
practical value. Their most important function is to clean up the air
around us. Carbon oxides released by car exhaust or even our respiratory
system are toxic. Trees filter and synthesize carbon oxides back into
oxygen.

Project advisors from scienceproject.com realized that
studying trees can be very educational, fun, and easy. Within several days
a project emerged relating to measuring trees and tree dating. Below is
the introduction to the project. Be sure to visit the site for this
project and many others for all age groups.

Introduction:

Some trees are small and some trees are big.
Obviously trees grow as they age; but how do you tell how old is
a tree?

Can you use the height of a tree as an
indication of its age? If so, how do you measure the tree's height?

The age of trees are important for many
different reasons. Each tree caries a history of weather conditions, accidents
and human activities around itself. By investigating a tree, we can learn about
some events in the past.

In this project you will study some trees in
your area to determine their age. Can you guess who planted the tree by knowing
the age of the tree and its location?

Material and step by step instructions:In this project you will study some
trees in your area to determine their age. Can you guess who planted the tree by
knowing the age of the tree and its location? You will also learn how to measure
the height of a tree without climbing it.

MiniScience.com
Gathering material needed for a science fair project has always been a
challenge for students. MiniScience.com is an online store that provides
many of the material that students need for their science projects. These
material are sold individually or in the form of a science kit. Many of
MiniScience.com products make perfect gift for intelligent and curious
students.
